Nip/Tuck - Season 1 - Disc 1
on DVD
Starring: Dylan Walsh, Joely Richardson, Julian McMahon
Certificate: 
Nip/Tuck is a welcome break from the current crop of Series coming out of America. For a start LAW is not a central issue (quite the opposite sometimes) so it's not based around police and lawyers. Now on to what it IS... The Series is based on two old school friends (Sean and Christian) who went through Uni together and started a small private plastic surgery in Miami. The lives of these two are the central focus of the show, but many of the lives of the secondary characters around them are also part of the show as well. The troubles of the two really start when Sean who is a more by the book kind of guy suffers a mid life crisis, Disillusioned with world of plastic surgery he wants to start doing pro bono work (basically free or heavily subsidised). His marriage to Julie is starting to fall apart and his son Matt is showing him little respect. This does not hold well with Christian who quite opposite to Sean is an amoral character into money, fast cars and women (very attractive women at that). But all is not well in Christian’s world either, he wants the only women he can’t have (I’ll let you guess who), his new girlfriend isn’t altogether ‘stable’ and he’s beginning to take on very questionable work from very questionable people. Watch it to find out more ;) Enjoy.
